Whilst the Cloth of the Initiate is represented by the number 6, as we have seen in the previous chapter, when we include the presence of the Point of Light where everything originates from, the One, the Number 7 appears.

The Number Six is the number of the material counterpart that represents the Spiritual essence in the three Planes of existence. Therefore 6-6-6.
The lowest material counterpart in man is his Astral Body, with its instincts and passions.

We have dealt with the application of the three and the three-fold several times in all the previous topics of our journey; for the economy of this work I think it is pointless to re-propose all those meanings. Likewise I think it makes no sense to anticipate for all numbers concepts that we will treat later.

The Number One represents for the Initiates the prime manifestation of the Will of the Immanifest, as it appears in the neutral (super-mundane) space circumscribed by the circumference of the metaphysical Zero, which holds and qualifies a part of space of the ultimate container symbolically called ‘the Cloth of the Immanifest’.

The concept of absolute zero or metaphysical zero as it was passed on to us by the Initiatory Tradition lies in the meaning entrusted to it, to symbolize inside itself the membrane that separates manifest from immanifest. The concept of transcendent.

The Essential Numbers of the Masonic Work and the minimal rules of their Archaic Symbolism – The evolution of the art of Numbers in the Western school – Two procedures to reveal the ‘secret of a Number’.

When changing the language used so far and creating a more essential ‘form’, we should find an agreement on the minimal value to give the concepts we will find in those new aspects of number, symbol and sound.

The Masonic Precepts are contained in a lesser Catechism that forms the body of the Lesser Mysteries and in a greater Catechism that refers to the body of the Greater Mysteries. The latter represent the third Threshold of Initiation. Lesser and Greater Mysteries have superimposable, therefore identical, purposes. The differences are the quality of terms and the different depth of thought in the same concepts.
